Robert Gahagan Pugh

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome...

Mrs Pugh,

I first became acquainted with Bob in 1973 when we jointly represented a young man who was charged with a crime of some significance and whose family knew and trusted Bob Pugh. Bob associated me and gave this...

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Mrs. Pugh and Family,

I am most saddened to hear of Mr. Pugh's death. I worked my way through college and afterwords working for his brother, J.B. Pugh and nephew R. Wayne Pugh in Baton Rouge. I recall many visits that Mr. Pugh made to Baton Rouge to visit his brother, J.B. and count myself fortunate to have spent some time in his presence. His admirable reputation truly preceeded him and we all knew it.

There is a quality of character that runs in the family's veins that...

lamar,So sorry to read of your fathers death.Lesie and i are thinking of you and your family.

Mrs Pugh, Bobby, Jean and Lamar:

We were so saddened to hear of Mr. Pugh's passing. He was a brilliant attorney, an astute political analyst, a trusted advisor to top government officials, and most of all, a loving husband and father.

If we could all accomplish half of what he did, the world would be a much better place.

Lucy and I send our condences to you and your children but know how proud you all must and should be of him as he certainly was of all of you.
